Question

Many animals recognize their food because they see it. So do humans. When you see an apple or a piece of chocolate you know that these are things you can eat. You can also use other senses when you choose your food. You may like it because it smells good or because it tastes good. You may dislike some types of food because they do not look, smell or taste very nice. Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense. 

     Although there are many different types of food, some animals spend their lives eating only one type. The giant panda eats only one particular type of bamboo. Other animals eat only one type of food even when given the choice. A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden. However, most animals have a more varied diet. The bear eats fruits and fish. The fox eats small animals, birds and fruits. The diet of these animals will be different depending on the season. 

     Humans have a very varied diet. We often eat food because we like it and not because it is good for us. In countries such as France and Britain, people eat foods with too much sugar. This makes them overweight, which is bad for their health. Eating too much red meat and animal products, such as butter, can also be bad for the health. Choosing the right food, therefore, has become an area of study in modern life.

試題分析：這篇短文給我們介紹的是人和動物是怎樣選擇食物的，以及很多動物都不只是吃一種類型的食物，文章最后還提到了在選擇食物時還要注意是否有利于健康。

1.主旨大意題。根據(jù)文章的第一段Different animals use different senses to find and choose their food. A few animals depend on only one of their senses, while most animals use more than one sense可知，人和動物一樣，都是依靠一種感覺來選擇食物。而且不同的動物用不同的感覺，大多數(shù)動物不只依靠一種感覺。故選D。

2.詞義猜測題。根據(jù)文章第二段的內容可知一些動物只吃一種類型的食物，在文中有however 一詞，我們可知接下來表述的內容和前面是相反的，即還有一些動物不只吃一種類型的食物，也就是吃各種各樣的食物。故選A。

3.細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)文章的第二段A kind of white butterfly will stay on the leaves of a cabbage, even though there are plenty of other vegetables in the garden.可知，有一種蝴蝶只停在卷心菜上，即使花園里還有很多其他的蔬菜，所以這種白蝴蝶只吃這一種類型的食物。故選C。

4.段意理解題。根據(jù)文章的最后一段內容可知，很多人在選擇食物時，并沒有注意到這種食物是否對人體的健康有利，例如在法國和英國這樣的國家，人們吃的糖太多，這對他們的健康是沒有好處的。故選B，人們對健康的飲食關心很少。

5.主旨大意題。這篇短文給我們介紹的是人和動物是怎樣選擇食物的，還有很多動物都不只是吃一種類型的食物，文章最后還提到了在選擇食物時還要注意是否對自己的健康有利。故A選項最符合文意。
